<p>Sometimes a 40W bulb can lose power without blowing out. If your lava stays sluggish over time, I suggest replacing the bulb with a new 40W. If you go with a weaker bulb then your lava will slow even more or not flow at all. Every lamp runs slightly different, your lamp may just be normally hot. But slow lava means an adjustment of some kind is needed. Your liquid appears to be foggy too, but using it constantly every day for a week or so might clear it up.</p>

<p> Carlisle's will run hotter, its nothing to worry about. Your bottle looks like its running fine with no signs of overheating. The lazy wax will get better with more runs. The bottle will not explode with a 40 watt bulb no matter how hot it feels.</p>

<p>These Carlisle lamps call for this specific bulb. I realize it's supposed to get hot, but I don't recall EVER owning a lamp that felt this hot from top to bottom - not even a previous Carlisle. I honestly think it would damage the finish on a wood surface over time, and will probably put it on a trivet or some other such thing. It's also obnoxiously slow which bugs me a bit. I loved my previous red/clear Carlisle, and wish I hadn't sold it ten years ago. </p>

<p>Maybe try a normal 40w bulb, maybe a frosted one for less heat. That said, an icon I've owned ran wowwie kazowie hot but seemed to like it. My Midnight runs hot too, but my old Century only gets warm to the touch.</p>
